Dialdehyde cross-linking guar gum (DCLGG), as a novel material, was synthesized using phosphorus oxychloride as a cross-linking reagent, sodium periodate as an oxidant, and ethanol as a solvent through keeping the original particle form of guar gum. The process parameters such as the reaction temperature, reaction time, pH, amount of sodium periodate, and amount of ethanol were optimized by the response surface methodology in order to obtain the regression model of the oxidization. The covalent binding of L-asparagine onto the surfaces of DCLGG was further investigated. The results showed that the best technological conditions for preparing DCLGG were as follows: reaction temperature = 40°C, reaction time = 3.0 h, pH = 4.0, and amount of ethanol = 74.5%. The swelling power of DCLGG was intermediate between cross-linking guar gum and dialdehyde guar gum. The cross-linking and dialdehyde oxidization reduced the viscosity of GG. The cross-liking reduced the melting enthalpy of GG. However, the oxidization increased melting enthalpy of ACLGG. The thermal stability of GG was increased by cross-linking or oxidization. The variation of the onset decomposition temperature and end decomposition temperature of GG was not consistent with thermal stability of GG. L-asparagine could be chemically bound well by DCLGG through forming Schiff base under the weak acidity. The maximum adsorption capacity of L-asparagine on DCLGG with aldehyde content of 56.2% reached 21.9 mg/g.

Polyaniline(PANI) with the doping of hydrochloride(HC1), aminosulfonic acid (NH2SO3H) or dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid(DBSA) was prepared by in-situ polymerization. Effects of acid content, reaction time, oxidant ammonium persulfate (APS) dosage and reaction temperature on the conductivity of PANI were studied. The resistance and thermal stability of them were compared. Results show that the largest conductivity of HC1-PANI is 1.98 s.cm-1 among them in case the C(HC1)=0.5mol/L, reaction time is 6.0h, n(APS/aniline)=1.0; The conductivity of NH2SO3H-PANI is 0.2s.cm-1 in case the C(NH2SO3H)=1.0mol/L, reaction time is 6.0h, n(APS/aniline)=2.0; The conductivity of DBSA-PANI is 0.98s.cm-1 in case the C(DBSA)=1.0 mol/L, reaction time is 8.0h, n(APS/aniline) = 2.0. The the least resistance of HC1-PANI is 10Ω, and that of NH2SO3H- PANI is the largest of 120Ω. The order of their thermal stability is DBSA-PANI > NH2SO3H-PANI > HC1-PANI before 350°C, that of their thermal stability is inverse when it reaches 350°C.

In order to improve thermal stability of Poly (Vinyl Chloride), a kind of thermal reversible cross-linking agents, the end cyclopentadienyl ethanethiol salts, sodium cyclopentadienyl ethyl mercaptan (CPD-C2H4SNa) was synthesized in this paper. The DSC results proved that the prepared CPD-C2H4SNa has obvious thermal reversible characteristics and the thermal reversible temperature was at 177 °C. The effects of cross-linking agent amount, cross-linking reactive time and temperature on flexible PVC compounds were evaluated through gel content testing. It was showed that the cross-linking agent with 3 Phr is optimum for PVC compounds. Moreover, both the cross-linking reactive time and temperature has effects on gel content of PVC compounds. The gel content of CPD-C2H4SNa cross-linked PVC compounds reaches maximum at 76% for 20 min at 160 °C.The static thermal stability of flexible PVC was measured according to congo red method. The results showed that the thermal stability of PVC compounds was enhanced with increasing cross-linking agent amount.

ABSTRACT The formation of thermoreversible hemi-ester cross-links of maleic anhydride grafted butyl rubber (MAn-g-IIR) using glycerol as a cross-linking agent in the absence of catalyst was studied in the present work. The effects of the molar ratios of glycerol to anhydride, the amount of the mixed solvent, the reaction temperature, and the reaction time on the percentage conversion of anhydride to ester were determined. The maximum percentage conversion calculated from the Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy spectra was 52.11. Reaction temperature played the most important role on the percentage conversion, followed by reaction time. Compared with the original MAn-g-IIR, tensile strength of the hemi-ester cross-linked MAn-g-IIR was significantly improved. These macromolecular regular clusters acted as strong and multiple cross-linking points that led to impressive mechanical properties. This confirmed the formation of hemi-ester cross-links. The covalently cross-linked MAn-g-IIR was reprocessable via compression molding at 179 °C and higher, indicating that the cross-links were indeed thermoreversible. The cross-linked materials could be repeatedly compression molded at 179 °C into homogeneous films for at least three cycles.

Aliphatic polycarbonates represent an important class of materials with notable applications in the biomedical field. In this work, low Tg furan-functionalized bio-based aliphatic polycarbonates were cross-linked thanks to the Diels–Alder (DA) reaction with a bis-maleimide as the cross-linking agent. The thermo-reversible DA reaction allowed for the preparation of reversible cross-linked polycarbonate materials with tuneable properties as a function of the pendent furan content that was grafted on the polycarbonate backbone. The possibility to decrosslink the network around 70 °C could be an advantage for biomedical applications, despite the rather poor thermal stability of the furan-functionalized cross-linked polycarbonates.

The epoxy nanocomposites filled with 0.1, 0.5, and 1 wt% nanodiamonds (nanoD) were prepared and their properties were compared with neat epoxy network or epoxy nanocomposite filled with 1 wt% multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs). The obtained nanoD-epoxy composites increased significantly thermal stability of prepared nanocomposites in comparison with neat epoxy matrix. The exponential decay of light transmittance with increasing concentration of nanoD in sample was observed. The values of storage modulus G` and glass transition temperature Tg significantly decreased by addition of nanoD to epoxy network. This is caused by inhibition of cross-linking reaction of epoxy- and amino- groups by nanoD.

In this article, the thermal stability of PU/PVDF blend was investigated by thermogravimetry (TG), and their rheological property was studied through testing and analyzing the rheological curves. The results showed that, with the increase in PVDF content, the thermal decomposition temperature of PU/PVDF blend increased, and by fitting relevant data to thermal decomposition dynamic equations, it was found that thermal decomposition activation energy of the blend increased gradually, i.e. the thermal stability of the blend increased gradually. Meantime, based on the curves of shear stress vs. shear rate of the blend at 180°C and 200°C, it was shown that for PU/PVDF blend, with the decrease of temperature and the increase in PVDF content, the non-Newtonian index decreased, while the viscosity of the blend increased.

Hydrophobic dialdehyde starch (HDAS) was synthesized by dialdehyde starch (DAS) and eighteen-alkyl primary amine as the raw material in DMSO. The effect of the reaction conditions on the yield of HDAS was investigated such as catalyst content, reaction temperature, reaction time, and the in-feed molar ratio of -CHO/-NH2. Moreover, the optimized test parameters were obtained by conducting orthogonal experiment. The molecular structure and the morphology of HDAS were characterized via Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). And the thermal stability and the hydrophobic properties of HDAS were investigated by thermal gravimetric analyzer (TG) and the hydrophobic testing. The results indicate that the yield of HDAS is the highest up to 44.21%, with feed composition 1 : 0.9, reaction temperature 40°C, reaction time 8 h, and acetic acid content 3%. And the introduction of the long-chain alkyl groups into the DAS backbones will ameliorate efficaciously the thermal stability and the hydrophobic properties of DAS, which almost has no effect on the DAS particle size.
